Chapter 69: Came and Left (shuhaige.net)



Gu Rong waved her hand and said, "If you're willing to support me, then forget about schooling."

It's settled then. You go to school, and I'll support you while you're studying. Once you graduate and start working, I'll just laze around and you'll have to support me from now on.

“You,” Gu Xing sighed and shook his head, “Even if you don’t support us, I will support you if I’m supposed to.”

But given the current situation, getting into university is practically our only way out, so no matter what, we have to keep up with the studies.

When I get home tonight, I'll make a plan. After this is over, I must study every day. It doesn't matter whether I study well or not, but I have to be prepared.

Gu Xing looked up and glared at Gu Rong, who was trying to get away with it: "You have to learn, or don't expect us to cook for you."

She didn't necessarily have to eat what they made, since there was space available.

But seeing how devoted Gu Xing was to her, she really felt like he was her brother.

But studying? That's out of the question: "Brother, I'm really not cut out for studying. It's no use making me study."

You and your sister-in-law, baby, and your group can learn from me, so don't force me. Otherwise, I'll run away from home, or I'll go on a hunger strike and starve myself to death.

Looking at Gu Rong's appearance, Gu Xing suddenly remembered his childhood for some reason.

The situation was similar back then. My mother was busy with work and family matters, so she didn't have time to take care of my younger sister.

I was thinking of sending my younger sister to school, but she absolutely refused to go. She threw a tantrum and even tried to starve herself, but after a day without food, a meal of meat was all it took to coax her to go.

Looking at Gu Rong in front of him, Gu Xing couldn't help but sigh: "Sigh...you...you're just like you were when you were little."

Back then, when your mother made you go to school, you didn't want to go either. Now, you're just like when you were a child, unwilling to go and acting like a brat.

But you're all grown up now, so your brother won't pressure you. You just need to figure out what you want and what you want to do.

No matter what you do, just remember that you have me as your older brother. I'll take care of you.

Hearing Gu Xing's words, Gu Rong felt as if a scene flashed through her mind for a moment.

But upon closer reflection, I can't recall anything, and this feeling is really uncomfortable.

Gu Rong frowned and looked at Gu Xing: "Don't worry, I have my own ideas and I will never wrong myself."

"Of all the people who reported Gu Qiang, severed ties with him, and sold their house and job, you're the most resourceful," Gu Xing said, taking down the roasted rabbit, tearing off a leg, and handing it to Gu Rong.

"Having ideas is a good thing. Knowing what you want and seeing things clearly is a good thing."

The two chatted casually.

Gu Rong always steered the conversation back to their childhood, hoping to learn more about their childhood through Gu Xing.

Inside the space, Ah Xi listened to the conversation between the two, her fingers almost sparking as she typed on the keyboard.

The two had only been eating for a short while when they heard Li Chengyang's voice: "You guys are immoral. You got some good stuff and didn't even wait for us."

Following the scent, Li Chengyang quickly ran to Gu Xing's side, sat down, and tore off a rabbit leg to gnaw on.

He took a bite and gave Gu Xing a thumbs up: "Brother, your cooking skills are really good. This roasted rabbit is the best I've ever eaten."

"It's Xiao Rong who gave you the best seasoning. If you like it, ask her to give you some seasoning. Just sprinkle some on it when you cook it, and the taste will be almost the same."

Li Chengyang lifted his head from the rabbit leg and quickly swallowed the meat in his mouth: "Yes, yes, yes, not just roasted rabbit."

And could I also order some of those seasonings for stewing meat? I want to go home later and have someone make some for my mom to try, to show her what really delicious meat is, unlike hers... which is inedible.”

Those seasonings were actually bought in the space; they were all ordinary seasonings.

The reason they find it delicious is simply because in this era, many families are reluctant to use seasonings, oil, and salt when cooking.

This stuff isn't expensive, so buying some for Li Chengyang is no problem.

Without saying a word, Gu Rong generously replied, "Okay, I'll bring you plenty, enough for you to get fat."

"Alright, alright, then I'll be waiting," Li Chengyang said without any hesitation, continuing to eat heartily.

Li Chengyang and Chu Jianshu went out together just now. Li Chengyang, with his dog-like nose, smelled the fragrance and ran over quickly.

Fearing it would slow them down, they even threw all the rabbits they had caught to him and ran off.

Chu Jianshu, carrying several rabbits, walked helplessly to Li Chengyang's side and threw the rabbits to the ground.

The splattered dust got all over Li Chengyang's face.

Li Chengyang had already noticed his deliberate actions. He stuffed the last bite of rabbit meat into his mouth, covered his nose and mouth, and chewed silently with his eyes squinted.

Once the ashes had settled, Chu Jianshu tore off a piece of rabbit meat and sat down to gnaw on it.

The rabbit was so small that the group shared it, and it was quickly finished.

They hadn't eaten enough at noon, especially Chu Jianshu and Li Chengyang, who had gone hunting, so what they ate wasn't enough to digest.

After finishing the last bite, Li Chengyang was even hungrier.

He opened his small eyes and looked at Gu Xing pitifully: "Brother, those few bites of food just now made me even hungrier. We hunted four rabbits, let's get two more."

Since they had nothing else to do, the group caught two more rabbits.

However, fearing that the smell might be too strong, the group moved to the other side before starting to roast the rabbit.

When Gu Qiang went up the mountain, he didn't hear any noise from the cave. He went inside and found no one there.

Following the aroma of meat, they found four people eating roasted rabbit.

Since arriving in Hanjiacun, Gu Qiang has never even tasted meat, let alone meat soup.

Watching Sun Shi and the others eat meat every day while he could only smell it was a truly unpleasant experience.

The meat didn't smell as good as it does now, but he could still tolerate it.

But the aroma of the meat was so irresistible that he almost couldn't resist rushing over and taking a couple of bites.

Gu Qiang swallowed hard, afraid that he might actually rush up, and descended the mountain, looking back every few steps.

"Master, Gu Qiang just came by, but the smell of meat was so good that he was afraid he would rush up and take a bite, so he ran away."

Gu Rong, who was gnawing on meat, was surprised to hear what A Xi said. She hadn't expected that eating meat would have such a benefit.

He couldn't help but think that from then on, he would roast a rabbit every day and leave it there, and Gu Qiang wouldn't dare to get close.

However, after thinking about it for a moment, he immediately shook his head.

If you really roast rabbits and chickens every day, the smell will definitely linger, and it might attract something bad.

After finishing the rabbit meat, and seeing that it was almost time, the four of them gathered some wild vegetables and went down the mountain.

Once they reached the foot of the mountain, Chu Jianshu and Li Chengyang went back to the neighboring house. Perhaps because they ate too much at noon, they didn't come over for dinner. A little while later, Gu Xing was also called over.
